The title “Ducking for Apples” is merely a play on words because the story is about five little ducklings that set out bicycling one fine day and chance upon an apple tree. That means snack, a pie and a cake. :-)
The vibrant watercolor illustrations burst with innocence and gush of energy that only little ones enjoy.
Excerpt
Three little ducks cut fruit in slices,
Mix with sugar, toss with spices.
Two little ducks press sticky dough
Down in the dish where the fruit will go.
